We would like to introduce you TrainYourEars 2.0, a professional audio
software for all audio engineers, recording engineers, producers, mastering engineers with the recommendation ofBob Katzaudio mastering icon.

We at audio-cleaning-online.com use this handy software to get our hearing system in form, to warm up our ears before work and improve the understanding of equalization and the frequency
spectrum.

What it does?

The software adds different random equalizers to your music stored on your computer,

and you can guess which frequency changed by setting the frequency on a modeled EQ.

At the end of a quiz you can compare the right answer to yours, so that speeding up the

learning method.

Features:

- Noiseplayer: you can learn different noise types (pink, white)

- Music player: drag and drop your favorite songs to play with

- Live player: connect external audio sources to the software through the sound card

- Training Guess mode: you have to guess the frequency of the EQ applied

- Training Correct mode: you have to find the exact opposite of the EQ applied

- Exercise packages: different exercises has been made qualified sound professionals

From now we provide audio editing services, so if you are looking for professional audio editors, who able to enhance your audio, and/or able to eliminate problems of your audio voice recording,
now you have found it.

We are here to help you.

We can help you with the following:

editing out mistakes, unwanted parts of your voice over or any voice recordings

Anyway, the two 1/8
inch (3.5 mm) audio output jacks offer you four modes of operation:

1) personal
listening mode via headphones or earbuds,
2) home stereo or in-car listening mode with fixed volume output,
3) PonoShare mode with two pairs of headphones/earbuds,
4) balanced mode provides ultra-performance for advanced users, separating left and right channel outputs across the two jacks. Great for use with high-impedance headphones, high-end home
stereo systems, or professional equipment using balanced XLR input connectors.

Audio files can be loaded onto the Pono Player using the Pono Music Center desktop application
(soon to be released on Windows and MacOS). The PonoPlayer can also be sideloaded as a USB storage device (Windows, MacOS, Linux).

Let's see 17 tips and tricks before you start to record your podcast. Please take my advice, everything on this list is very important
to get a good sound quality podcast at last, that is ready for podcast mastering. Please, feel
free to ask in the comment section below.

If it's possible record everything by using professional microphones (avoid cheap and built-in mics)

Use popfilters on mics

Stay away from walls and corners (if you have acoustic treatments, you can sit closer to them).

Turn down the volume of your speakers to zero(!) while recording, and use headphones (including your guests)

Forget MP3(!), if you have space on your hard drive, record in .wav (on Windows) or .aiff (if you are on Mac)

Set the sample rate to 44kHz/16bit or if your soundcard is good enough, choose the 44kHz/24bit depth option, minimum

If you don't have space on your hard drive, choose the FLAC format to compress your audio files or use the mono recording option (the human voice is a mono source anyway)

If you already have a lot of MP3's, after the cutting/ trimming/ mixing processes don't save them back to MP3 again (avoid double compress), use lossless file formats (as I marked above:
.wav, .aiff, .flac)

Use quality microphone cables, such as Mogami's Quad cable or Mogami neglex 2549. If you have USB mike, nothing to do, use
the USB cable bravely

Take away the power supplies from the audio cables

Keep your microphones away from your monitor display

Don't use external hard drives to record to it directly (only if it has USB3 connection) it may causes glitches on your records

Record the mics to separate channels in your recording software, it will help in mixing it separately

Turn off the built-in sounds of softwares such as Skype (etc.) during the recording

If you spend money on quality audio equipments, like amps, speakers, headphones,

why would you cut corners on interconnect cables? Here's a test/ review of two audio cables, a common audio cable and the Mogami neglex 2549. Mogami is much
used in audio studios, so it might be good for us as well to listen to music.

No, I am not sponsored by Mogami.

Usually in tests like this, a professional tells you the 'truth', and you believe him, because he is a professional. But now you can see and hear the difference, so you can believe your own eyes
and ears.

Noise

As you can see on the pictures below, the Mogami cable is more senseless to low frequency hum than the common one.
The hum itself and its harmonics, in this case 150Hz and 250Hz, are due to the frequency of electrical networks, which is 50Hz in Europe.

Mogami neglex 2549 noise profile on phono usage

Sound quality

OK now, let's see closely how these cables sound. The vinyl was the Daft Punk - Random access memories album, because it's a
masterpiece of sound engineering.

Sorry I can't upload the whole files, only samples because of the copyrights.

The original sample rate was 192kHz/32 bit, but I couldn't upload to sound sharing sites,

than resampled to 44,1kHz/16bit (normal CD quality).

Common cable sounds

Mogami neglex 2549 sounds

So here is the evidence, the Mogami sounds more detailed, precise, clean (try to concentrate to reverbs and snares), bright and
its frequency response is as flatten as an ironed shirt, maybe it's worth the (not so much) money.

Don't worry if you didn't hear the difference, maybe your ears are tired now, or it will be come later in your life,

or you are in need of really good headphones or speakers.

Update: thanks to the Soundcloud audio compression...maybe I will change player widget...

Update no.2.: I've changed the audio player to Hearthis.at's, that is more flexible and cheaper than soundcloud. It can play .wav, .aiff, etc. You should try.
